Hey Steamfan - I see my dear friend Marie already beat me to it, but it's meetup time! Saturday, April 6th, Panera Bread, Miracle Mile Shopping Center, St Louis Park. We'd LOVE to have you come and join us at about 10 or anytime thereafter. Once a meetup lasted 4 hours and we all had to have lunch in addition to breakfast! (or just coffee or whatever suits your fancy).
I plan on being there. If you think you can come, send me a personal message and I'll give you my cell number to have in case you get lost or can't find us (little chance of that - we can sometimes be a boisterous group). Usually about 4-6 core people are in attendance, but we've had as many as 15 since I started going.

Welcome to the family!! On this forum you will learn so much. Most of what you will learn is that you are not alone. Everyone here is supportive and will provide answers to your questions. Search the site for answers. Read the discussions and blogs for information. There are videos to help you understand diabetes and its treatment. Most of all there is family to talk to and vent to, if needed.

Hi Steamfan. We are neighbors, in the general sense of the word. I live in south Minneapolis.
You will love TD. I have been here since the start and it has grown to a community of beautiful, compassionate and intelligent people with a great wealth of experience - something for everyone.
Do check out the groups and chatroom.
We have frequent meetups in the metro area. Let me know if you'd like to be notified.
Welcome to TD. Nice to have you with us.
